Racin_Jason Posted March 13, 2001 Share Posted March 13, 2001 Welcome to the site! I'm new aswell but I assure you this is a great bunch of people with a wealth of knowledge on these cars. I'll leave the questions to someone more familiar with the later L-6's. Enjoy your stay, Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest scca Posted March 14, 2001 Share Posted March 14, 2001 i dont knwo what a stock ZX does in the 1/4 but you cant improve it alot with the stock engine wiring (efi). the original efi cannot feed enuf fuel to make it go much faster. put a header on it and then exhaust , air filter (KN) and save the rest of the $ for other things. if you really want HP you will need to go to a SDS EFI system then a big cam etc...... ------------------ Mike mike@fonebooth.com http://www.outlaw-brakes raceparts and brake upgrades.

Guest Anonymous Posted March 14, 2001 Share Posted March 14, 2001 where can i get more info on an SDS?? how much does it cost, is it a kit with the injectors?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Speaker Posted March 14, 2001 Share Posted March 14, 2001 well basically the SDS system allows you to program the thing yourself so you pick what size injectors you want, etc but you have to buy injectors seperate... SVO Mustang injectors would probably work fine for you... there's a group buy running on the SDS system right now mike 'scca' gibson? i think it is, is the man to talk to about it...

Drax240z Posted March 14, 2001 Share Posted March 14, 2001 Actually this isn't entirely true. A guy on zcar.com (IAN FIC) is running the stock EFI with his 3.1L turbo engine (not stock) and he is into the low 12's (I think) in the quarter. He was one of the previous cars of the month over there if you are looking for more information. It CAN be done. Whether its worth the bother or not is somewhat questionable. I chose not to bother. ------------------ Richard Lewis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
